Robert Mueller is expected to release his Russia probe findings after the midterms, reports Bloomberg.
Special counsel Robert Mueller is reportedly planning to release some key findings from the Russia probe not long after the midterm elections, Bloomberg reports, citing US officials. The outlet notes: "Mueller is close to rendering judgment on two of the most explosive aspects of his inquiry: whether there were clear incidents of collusion between Russia and Donald Trump's 2016 campaign, and whether the president took any actions that constitute obstruction of justice, according to one of the officials, who asked not to be identified speaking about the investigation." Bloomberg does note that the release of information doesn't mean that the public will be privy to all of the information. Based on the current chain of command, the findings will be delivered to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who is overseeing the Russia investigation due to the recusal of Attorney General Jeff Sessions. He would then, with limited discretion, supply information to Congress and the American people. President Trump has made his objections to the Russia investigation well known. His many, and not necessarily accurate, tweets on the topic include: "The illegal Mueller Witch Hunt continues in search of a crime. There was never Collusion with Russia, except by the Clinton campaign, so the 17 Angry Democrats are looking at anything they can find. Very unfair and BAD for the country. ALSO, not allowed under the LAW!" He also commented: "Is Robert Mueller ever going to release his conflicts of interest with respect to President Trump, including the fact that we had a very nasty & contentious business relationship, I turned him down to head the FBI (one day before appointment as S.C.) & Comey is his close friend."
